Using conversation shortcuts in Message

Conversation shortcuts help you save time replying to messages by inserting common phrases with just a few keys. For example, you might want to create a conversation shortcut that says, "Hi, how can I assist you today? or "Can you please confirm the email address associated with this account?"

Conversation shortcuts are created and managed through the Zendesk Chat dashboard, but you can navigate to the conversation shortcuts settings page from Message.

To add and manage conversation shortcuts

1. Select the Admin, then Account.
2. Click the Manage shortcuts button.

You will be redirected to the Zendesk Chat dashboard. For detailed instructions, see Inserting common phrases with shortcuts.
